The place itself is nice and quiet despite being so close to the Zocalo. Alfonso also helped us feel safe while giving us ideas of where to walk around. A lot of touristy things to do that are quite accessible and walking distance. The rooms are clean and spacious. The bathroom (despite being a shared bathroom) is also kept...
